our history

Ecology Action of Texas was founded in 1969 by a group of visionary UT students after the Round Earth Conference on UT campus, part of the organizing for the first Earth Day Celebration. An all volunteer group at the time, Ecology Action sought to promote a variety of environmental issues, eventually focusing on recycling and landfill diversion. Today, we continue in Ecology Action's tradition of stewardship across the City of Austin, serving the entire community as trusted advocates of the environment.
